"What started as a completely normal day for me turned into a nightmare and months of pain.
"I wake up every day in pain.
"Then there's the emotional and mental part. This has affected me everywhere I go.
"I find it hard to be in a car when others are too close or break too hard. I'm also triggered by loud cars.
"I'm now frightened and scared that I will get hurt again and that is because of you."
The court heard she has also been diagnosed with PTSD.
Dale, of Lambourne Avenue, Longbenton, North Tyneside, who had one conviction as a juvenile, pleaded guilty to causing serious injury by dangerous driving, dangerous driving, and failing to stop after an accident.
She was also banned from driving for three years following her release from custody.
Penny Hall, mitigating, said: "Prior to her attendance at the car park she had received a rather panicked call from her son. She was worried as to what might be going to happen to him.
"She wanted to make sure he was safe and bring him home.
"When she got to the ASDA car park there were people surrounding him.
"She did not go there intending to cause harm to anyone. She accepts she did cause harm and injury to the complainant for which she is remorseful. She is sorry it happened and asked that I express that.
"That was clearly not her intention but she accepts by driving in the way she did when she arrived that's what happened.
